Speaking ahead of this weekend’s coronation, Highlands and Islands MSP Jamie Halcro Johnston said:
King Charles III's coronation is a momentous occasion for our nation, celebrating the rich traditions and shared heritage that define us.
As we witness the crowning of our new monarch, we are reminded of the enduring values of duty, service, and unity that have guided our country for centuries.
This historic event also offers us another opportunity to remember the remarkable life and service of the late Queen Elizabeth II, a monarch whose reign was marked by her unwavering dedication to our country and her commitment to the well-being of her people. Her legacy will long endure, and her memory will always hold a special place in our hearts.
As we embark on a new chapter of our nation's long history, l send my best wishes to Their Majesties The King and Queen, and I look forward to their next visit to my region, one I know they have such a personal connection with.
I hope people across the Highlands and Islands will enjoy the coronation weekend and be inspired by the enduring values that have made us who we are - a proud and resilient people, united in our shared history and our enduring commitment to building a brighter future for all”.
